The students are so excited for the holidays and you can definitely feel that in the air as I walk through the school. I really do love this time of year in an elementary school (minus the full moon this week, too, though.)
We all have holiday traditions, each a little different, but so meaningful to each family. I look forward to the time off and seeing family and friends. Twinkling lights, Xmas trees, decorations, gatherings, are just a few of my favorite things this time of year.
Over the last couple of weeks a lot has been happening here at MLS. Last Friday, the K-2 grade students participated in the Health Fair. There were many stations that they rotated through. My favorite was the ball drums. I had a blast at that station!
Second graders had the opportunity to see a hand-made hover craft. Some of them even got to ride it. It was very neat. (see picture below)
There have been holiday parties, PE dance-offs, and many projects this week. You can't walk down the hall without seeing some cool piece of artwork or creation. I love it!!!
When we return in 2 weeks we will welcome in 2014. Wow where has the year gone?
I hope that everyone has a wonderful break.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your families!!
Warmest Regards,
Mrs. Robertson
